A round faceted aquamarine is at the center of this pendant. It is accompanied by small leaf ornaments with seed beads and framed by dynamically curved strips of gold. A delicate, modern chain turns the pendant into a necklace. The pendant is a particularly typical design for Great Britain during the reign of Edward VII (1901-1910). There had been no war in Europe for a long time and industrialization had increasingly increased the prosperity of the middle classes. As a result, the need for jewellery had also increased, which naturally had to match the latest wardrobe. Gold jewelry set with colored stones or pearls was worn in particular with daywear, which often consisted of a fitted costume consisting of a long skirt, fitted jacket and elegantly draped blouse. With its warm materials, the pendant therefore reflects the fashion of the time. At the same time, with its subtle asymmetry and floral design, the pendant also reveals the influence of continental Art Nouveau. The pendant came to us from London, and it was also made in Great Britain. Its date is also confirmed by the use of 15-karat gold, which was only used until 1932. We have added the matching fine gold chain to the pendant.
